Directed by Akira Kurosawa | 1952
With Takashi Shimura, Nobuo Kaneko, Shin’ichi Himor
Perhaps Akira Kurosawa’s most touchingly humanist work, this poignant masterpiece follows a lonely pencil-pushing Tokyo bureaucrat who learns he has only a short while left to live and embarks on a transformative search for meaning. What plays out is one of cinema’s most moving reflections on mortality, graced with an exquisite, indelible final image.
